Defensive publication

ABSTRACT

SYNTHETIC TRILOBAL FILAMENTS WITH A MODIFICATION RATIO OF 1.55 TO 1.75 CONTAINING 3 TO 8% BY WEIGHT OF A HIGH MOLECULAR WEIGHT, WATER-SOLUBLE POLY(ALKYLENE ETHER) ARE SOIL-RESISTANT AND HAVE A REDUCED TENDENCY TO CHANGE COLOR WHEN WET. PREFERABLY, THE FILAMENTS ARE NYLON AND HAVE A TIP OF RADIUS OF 0.3 TO 0.5; THE PREFERRED POLY(ALKYLENE ETHER) IS POLY(ETHYLENE ETHER) GLYCOL.
